10 Typical Desi Parental Things That Only An Indian Kid Relates To

Being Indian is simply awesome and when you have amazing parents, it doesn’t matter if you are still a kid or all grown up, your parents will be overprotective about you and you are their ‘Laadla Bacha!’

We kids can totally relate to the parental comments and remarks we get for the smallest to the biggest things! Even though this is the 21st century, for our parents its still the orthodox century where life was a standstill 😛

So, let’s checkout some of the amazing Indian parents say…. that you will totally agree to and laugh at the same time!

1) There are only 3 career options for Indian parents: Engineer, Doctor, Lawyer

According to Indian parents, you have a bright future only if you are an Engineer, Doctor or a lawyer! Because there is always a ‘sharma ji ka beta’ who is pursuing one of these professions. So, to them ‘baaki sab is bakwaas,’ you are a mediocre student!

2) Society People Play An Important Role

Our parents are always worried about ‘log kya kahenge?’ They forget that your life decisions can also be chosen by your self and parents, but there are always those relatives who you have never heard of will always be included in your decision 😛 For instance if you are wearing a pair of shorts and a crop top, your mom tells you, “ what are you wearing, what will the neighbors think when they see you ?!”

3) Touching The Feet Of Elders

Paer Choona is a very important tradition that Indian parents want their kids to always follow! This is one of the best ways to show respect to your elders and all those who are ten years older than you, paer choona toh banta hai and I must say this a very nice practice our parents have taught us.

4) One Slap That Moves You!

The concept of Ek Thappad has always made us afraid when we were kids. Indian parents know that one slap can bring us back to line 😛 We all have been there and this therapy actually works!

5) That Awkward Moment When You Have To Change TV Channels Randomly When There Are Some Adult Scenes

We all have been there. Whenever we are watching TV with our parents and suddenly a sex scene pops up, we randomly change channels 😛 Because we don’t want to make our parents uncomfortable as well!

6) You Are So Thin, Eat More!

We all know our parents love to feed us food and make us healthy! I don’t understand how can they think we are so thin, when we actually are healthy 😛 When we were kids, we were even force-fed!

7) Avoid Non- Veg On Vrat Days

Even if our parents are keeping a fast, we are also asked to not eat non-veg! I still don’t understand the concept still, but it does tempt me when my friends get non-veg and I feel the guilt of not having it.

8) It Is Important To Put Nazar Ka Tika

Because our parents don’t want anything bad to happen, so they are like beta nazar ka tika lagaao, no one will ever trouble you 😛

9) The Common Weapon: Emotional Blackmail

All parents keep it very handy and they do know how to use it on us as well! Everytime you upset your parents, there they go bringing a list of blackmails that can actually make you cry.

10) Your Mom Knows Everything

This is the ultimate confession I would like to make and it is true! Your mothers know everything and do everything best. Be it oiling your hair or telling you which friends of yours are a bad influence, they have this super power inside them that tells you everything!
